The administrator of a Russian-speaking cybercriminal forum has held a contest for the community to share uncommon methods to target cryptocurrency-related technology. The announcement came on April 20 and asked for research papers that explored various ways to steal private keys and cryptocurrency wallets, mining software, smart contracts, or non-fungible tokens (NFTs) Intel 471 notes that after the initial post from the forum member, another forum member added $15,000 to the initial prize pool. The rising price of digital coins and the explosion of the NFT market are too attractive for cybercriminals to pass.
